8. Some recipes or ingredients call for shaking the ingredients halfway

through the preparation time (see ‘Settings Chart’ on page 12).

To shake the ingredients, pull the pan out of the appliance by the handle

and shake it. Then slide the pan back into the air fryer and continue to cook.

Note: After sliding the pan out of the appliance, the display will go into

sleep mode, when you return the pan to the appliance, your time and

temperature settings will automatically resume. There is no need to

reset your setting or press start.

9. When your selected cooking time has elapsed the timer bell will ring. Pull

basket release cover forward,

press down on the basket release

NOTE: If you want to power o the air fryer in middle of air frying

press the power icon for 3 seconds.

any excess oil that has collected on the bottom of the

pan or basket will leak onto the ingredients. To avoid

scratching the nonstick surface do not use sharp or

metal utensils.

10

Put the main plug in an grounded wall socket.

Tap the timer icon to set the required preparation

time to turn on the appliance.

Slide the pan into the appliance properly.

Put smaller batches of ingredients in the basket.

Tap the temperature icon to set the required

temperature setting.

(see ‘Settings Chart’ on page 12).

Tap the timer icon to set the required preparation

time.

(see ‘Settings Chart’ on page 12).

Ingredients that lie on top of or across each other

(e.g.fries) need to be shaken halfway through the

preparation time.

(see ‘Settings Chart’ on page 12).

Use oven snacks or lightly brush some oil onto the

snacks for a crispier result.

Do not ll the basketbeyond max line

(see ‘Settings Chart’ on page 12).

When you fry greasy ingredients in the air fryer, a

large amount of oil will leak into the pan. The oil

produces white smoke and the pan may heat up

more than usual. This does not aect the appliance

or the end result.

White smoke is caused by grease heating up in

the pan. Make sure you clean the pan and basket

properly after each use.

Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay rm

during frying.

Rinse the potato sticks properly to remove starch

from the outside of the sticks.

Make sure you dry the potato sticks properly

before you add the oil.

Cut the potato sticks smaller for a crispier result.

Add slightly more oil for a crispier result.

The ingredients fried in

the air fryer are not done.

The ingredients are fried

unevenly in the air fryer.

Fried snacks are not crispy

when they come out of the

air fryer.

I cannot slide the pan into

the appliance properly.

White smoke comes out

of the appliance.

Fresh fries are fried unevenly

in the air fryer.

Fresh fries are not crispy when

they come out of the air fryer.

The appliance is not plugged in.

You have not set the timer.

The pan is not put into the appliance

properly.

The amount of ingredients in the

basket is too much.

The set temperature is too low.

The preparation time is too short.

Certain types of ingredients need

to be shaken halfway through the

preparation time.

You used a type of snack meant to be

prepared in a traditional deep fryer.

The basket is overlled.

You are preparing greasy ingredients.

The pan still contains grease residues

from previous use.

Quality potatoes will give an even

cook.

Rinse the potato sticks properly

before you fried them.

The crispiness of the fries depends on

the amount of oil and water in the

fries.

AIR FRYING TIPS

• Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time

than larger ingredients.

• Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time

optimizes the end result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.

• Add 1 Tablespoon of oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your

ingredients in the air fryer within a few minutes after you add the oil.

• Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the

air fryer.

• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer.

• Use pre-made dough to prepare lled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made

dough also requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.

• Place a baking tin or oven dish in the air fryer basket if you want to bake a

cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile ingredients or lled ingredients.

Note: Because the rapid hot air technology instantly reheats the air inside the

appliance, pulling the pan out of the appliance during use, for a short amount

of time, will not eect the process.

Tip: If you set the timer to half the preparation time, your timer will ring

when you have to shake the ingredients. However, this means that you have

to set the timer again to the remaining preparation time after shaking.

(see ‘Settings Chart’ on page 12).

Tip: If you set the timer to full preparation time, there is no timer bell during

cooking. Before nishing, you can pull out the pan at any time to check the

ingredients cooking condition. The power will shut down automatically

and, will only resume after you slide the pan back into the appliance (timer

always counts down in this situation).
